Bar Hill News - Apr 1993 (Issue 287)

Here's the April 1993 issue of the Bar Hill News (Issue 287). This issue includes such topics as;

- Litter Busting Day,
- The adoption of Viking Way (by the County Council), 
- Bar Hill PTA Fun Run, and
- A stray black cat in Foxhollow was successfully reunited with its owners

As well as the usual updates from the Cricket Club, Happy Hours, Tennis Club, and the South Cambridgeshire Conservative Association.

This issue included this poem (on the subject of the litter picking day);

"And did those feet in recent times 
Walk around Bar Hill's village green 
To scent the perfume of the limes 
Then tread in piles where dogs have been? 
You'll find newspapers by the score
Dumped in the hedge, not through your door. 
Let's tidy up and make it grand
In Bar Hill's green and pleasant land.
  
Bring me my sack, my pointed cane, 
Springtime has come around again. 
We pick up junk, tin cans and glass,
That litters paths, hedgerows and grass. 
We ask, good people, do be kind,
No more your rubbish leave behind. 
On Picking Day give us a hand
In Bar Hill's green and pleasant land!"
